| I think the puppy looks like a Yorkie, and not at all freaky. All puppies are going to change a little, my little girl changed A LOT week to week. Good luck in your search, I hope you make the decission that is best for your family.

Haha! Okay! maybe it was just me then? lol I dont know I just thought she should be more fluffy and chubby like she looks in the first pic and not thin and not too fluffy a coat like the second. But maybe thats cuz im comparing her to all the pups her age on youtube or something. Cuz if u google. Yorkie Chihuahua mix theres a pup on there that sorta looks like her in her second pic. but more like diluted haha like u can tell its a mix in the pic. but when i see that idk she seems more yorkish HAHAH so i dont know what im looking at haha. Phew! okay well atleast it sounds normal and shes not going thru some freaky stage or anything. And thanks so much for the warm wishes. That was very kind of your =D can wat too post pics 4 days when we go get her =D | |

| Hi. well to me its looks like a full bred Yorkie pup..who is changing very quickly as they all do. In fact it looks like my Dustie...smooth coat when very young and a fluffy coat as they get a bit older... I don't think from looking at those piccies that there is anything wrong. I brought Dustie home at 8 weeks..He was so very tiny...I was told he would be a teacup ...but he has grown a bit.. .They change so very quickly.. Chris x

| Hi! I'm not a breeder, so I don't really have any expertise here however I do have a cockapoo in the family. When we were researching her breed, we found information on "generations" of the breed , and they mentioned 1st generation, poodle to cocker, as the way to breed. I would assume(and I know one should never) that it works the same with yorkiepoos. If you intend to breed this pup, he is already a 1st generation, although you will probably have very cute pups, you will not have the proper mix unless you breed to the proper generation, and no way of knowing what the pups will look like. Would also like to mention that My daughter went home and when I next saw Maddy, she looked like the dog in the Grinch who stole Christmas! Two months later her coat changed and she looked the way she was supposed to, Adorable. Good luck, and do your research! |

| Oh, you're little baby to be, is gorgeous!! She looks just like my little girl looked when we went to visit her (drover 4 hrs one way) at 8 weeks. From the pics at 1 week old to 8 weeks when we saw her...she had really changed! This is totally normal. You will be so surprised of all the changes as she grows. We drove back to pick Zhoie Bella up at 12 weeks, but believe me they do need that time with their mama and other litter mates to learn proper mouthing and socialization etc. My girl is low keyed and very well mannered and I do credit it to the excellent breeder and the training techniques she used. I too have had dogs all my life and I must caution you, this breed unique little ones, high maintenance and require alot of care, attention and vet care which in turn means...expense. Just want you to be prepared for that if this is the breeder you have your heart set on getting. Good Luck and Congrats!! If I can offer you any advise, call on me. I'm still learning too, as I go along.

| she looks like a puppy that's growing up to me, but it's very hard to tell anything from a fuzzy cell phone shot...but yea they thin out from chunky babies into adults and change and she looks to me pretty normal. i agree with other posters, do your research and check out this breeder and don't breed the dog until you have researched every detail and have a reputable breeder there to help you through your first experience with it. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Just my oppinion... I think if she's looking a little freaky now and she's still so young I would shop around some more. I sometimes hear people say that they'll grow into something else or better looking and I have to disagree...I mean, they do change but if it's not a good looking puppy then it probable won't be a good looking dog...I have one to prove it...if you're not committed to the dog then I would find one that you fall in love with...the pup will be with you for a very long time))

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I'm sure it's fair to say you would know better than I would but I'm curious to see a picture of an ugly duckling that turned into a champion....I'm guessing that everyone's idea of what an ugly duckling is, varies...

| And this isnt my first dog we've had 3 before but they were killed by the home owners association from where I am currently living and I despise them for it. Am I the only one who read this? Everyone is talking about pups, litter's, looks etc but what about this statement? Where the heck do you live and why would you even consider bringing another dog, of any kind, into this envirornment? What kind of people are they? |

I know that from the time she was 3 to 4 months of age....I'd look at her and shake my head and say I just don't know....you have everything going for you except that head........ I guess one has to know their lines and have a trained eye. Those cute pups that have the fluffy, fluffy coats.....alot of times though, cute end up with soft coats......and those pups that have that have that skimpy coat usually end up with the most gorgeous silk.
